Modern Islam in Translation: Reformist Aspirations and the Qur'an,

Öz

In the early twentieth century, translating the Qur’an into local vernaculars was met with general reluctance and even open opposition among Muslims, yet today Qur’an translations abound in commercial markets around the world. How can we understand this shift? How is it that translations of the Qur’an have become so ubiquitous over the course of a century? Brett Wilson tackles these questions by tracing Muslim perceptions of, and ways of relating to the Qur’an from the mid-nineteenth century to the 1930s.
